Variability of Soft X-ray Spectral Shape in Blazars Observed by ROSAT [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
In paper 1 (Cheng et al. 2001) we have shown that the soft X-ray spectra of two types of Seyfert 1 galaxies statistically vary differently with increasing intensity.

The Nature of Micro-Variability in Blazars

open access: yesGalaxies, 2021
We present the results of a long-term study designed to investigate the nature of micro-variability in blazars carried out primarily at the Southeastern Association for Research in Astronomy (SARA) observatories.

A Machine Learning Approach for Predicting Black Hole Mass in Blazars Using Broadband Emission Model Parameters

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
Blazars are observed to emit non-thermal radiation across the entire electromagnetic spectrum from the radio to the very-high-energy γ-ray region. The broadband radiation measured from a blazar is dominated by emission from a relativistic plasma jet ...

Blazars and Gamma Ray Bursts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Blazars and Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) are the fastest objects known so far. The radiation we see from these sources originates in a jet of similar aperture angle, and we think it is the result of the conversion of some of the jet kinetic energy into random

Rapid optical variability of TeV blazars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In this first systematic attempt to characterise the intranight optical variability (INOV) of TeV detected blazars, we have monitored a well defined set of 9 TeV blazars on total 26 nights during 2004-2010. In this R (or V)-band monitoring programme only

The CLASS blazar survey: testing the blazar sequence [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2004
We discuss the properties of the sources in the CLASS Blazar survey which aims at the selection of low radio power (P(5GHz)<10^25 W Hz^-1) blazars. We use VLA data from available catalogues and from our own observations to constrain the radio core-dominance of the sample which, together with the flat radio spectral index, is a signature of the ...

Near infrared polarimetry of a sample of blazars*

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2013
Polarization variability is one of the most ubiquitous characteristic of blazars. Near infrared (NIR)polarization measurements of blazars are not common, contrary to the optical ones.

Simultaneous Planck, Swift, and Fermi observations of X-ray and gamma-ray selected blazars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We present simultaneous Planck, Swift, Fermi, and ground-based data for 105 blazars belonging to three samples with flux limits in the soft X-ray, hard X-ray, and gamma-ray bands.

The Effect of Blazar Spectral Breaks on the Blazar Contribution to the Extragalactic Gamma-ray Background [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The spectral shapes of the contributions of different classes of unresolved gamma-ray emitters can provide insight into their relative contributions to the extragalactic gamma-ray background (EGB) and the natures of their spectra at GeV energies.
